1Password Kiro Plugin

A Kiro plugin that connects Kiro to the 1Password desktop app's local MCP server for 1Password Developer Environments.

The plugin lets Kiro help with secure project environment setup — listing Developer Environments, inspecting variable names, adding variables, and creating local .env mounts. Secret values stay controlled by 1Password and are never shared with Kiro.

Platform: The 1Password Kiro Power is currently macOS only.

Prerequisites

• macOS with the 1Password desktop app installed.
• The 1Password MCP Server is enabled in the desktop app under Settings > Developer > MCP Server > Integrate with MCP clients.
• A 1Password account with Developer Environments enabled.

The local MCP server is expected at:

/Applications/1Password.app/Contents/MacOS/1password-mcp
